So Why Not Save Someone You Love?

Some pencil neck, bean counting, corporate waste bucket bureaucrat walking up to a doctor of Veterinary medicine and actually asking that she participate in an X-ray quota for her beloved little patients?

Well that is the story Dr. Gia tells.

She was shocked, revolted and enraged.

She immediately quit that establishment and is now applying for a grant to help bootstrap her own Veterinary Care Center “Green Paws” in La Grange, IL.

A vote for her and her colleagues is a vote against corporate conglomerates that participate in unethical treatment of our pets for profit.

This post is to help raise awareness for pet owners on the importance of selecting a reputable pet care facility but also I am writing because Dr. Gia isn’t just any Veterinarian; she’s my sister.

I know how she thinks and feels. I know intimately how stunned and completely infuriated she was when this request was made of her.

She thought it was unfathomable that a corporate board, much less any human being could even imagine they could direct a doctor to participate in an activity which could be deemed harmful to her patients for profit or any other reason.

Through her story I think we all need to understand that no matter where we are in the world, this type of mindset can exist.
